(setq case-fold-search t
      case-replace nil)

Specify both the search text and replacement in lower case.
With case-fold-search t it will find upper and camel case
occurances.  case-replace nil causes the replacement to be
used literally.

If you must downcase only part of the substitution, I don't know other
ways than to write some emacs lisp, or awk.  Something like:

(while (re-search-forward regexp nil t)
   (let ((p1 (match-string 1))
         (p2 (match-string 2))
         ...
         (pn (match-string n)))
    (delete-region (match-beginning) (match-end))
    (insert (format "...%s...%s...%s..." p1 (downcase p2) ... pn))))



Anyways, if you like to process flex/bison (or lex/yacc) files like
this, it may be a good idea not to make it a one-shoot affair, but to
keep the transformation in a script or a Makefile.  In general when I
use flex/bison, I've got a number of pre and post processing of the
sources in Makefile, with sed & awk.  For more sophisticated
transformations, emacs could be used (in batch mode ;-).

Well, with a developer Emacs, you can use

C-M-% t_foo_[_a-zA-Z]+ RET \,(downcase \&) RET

\, is one of the things that I find pretty convenient.

C-x C-l downcase-region

How about a keyboard macro: search-forward to t_foo_ then move point to
end of line and downcase-region.

Subject: Another regex problem

Hello,

I've bumped into another problem which I'd like to use
query-replace-regexp to fix if possible.  Not I've got a bunch of these:

t_foo_Grape_Banana
t_foo_Pear
t_foo_Apple

which I'd like to replace with
t_foo_grape_banana
t_foo_pear
t_foo_apple

In other words I'd like to make them uniformly lower case but I can't
figure out how to accomplish this in the replacement string.  Is it
possible?  Thanks in advance.
